Wild MX2 Aerobatics at New Zealand Warbirds Airshow

Doug Brooker shows off his impressive aerobatic skills in his MX-2 at a New Zealand Warbirds airshow held at Ardmore Aerodrome, Auckland, New Zealand.

X Aircraft is a North Carolina based company specializing in the production and sales of the MX2 and MXS line of Sport, Aerobatic and Race aircraft. The company was founded in 2001 to design and build the next generation aerobatic monoplane.  Its goals included major improvements  in speed, manoeuvrability and smooth crisp, responsive controls.

The planes’ enthusiastic reception by veteran race, air show and aerobatic pilots, (and a backlog of orders) has confirmed the success of the programme.

Both the MX2 and MXS have been professionally engineered utilizing “state of the art” computer design and structural analysis. They use all “Toray” carbon fibre in our aircraft to ensure maximum structural potential.

This certified aerospace grade material is arguably the best available in the market today which is the very same used in many of today’s military aircraft and provides both superior strength and unsurpassed fit and finish of the airframe components.

Each individual component is designed to “fair” into the next providing a smooth and efficient airframe. Maintenance costs are also greatly reduced with the use of this material since there are no rubber mouldings or fabric to worry about.
